No sandbagging here. I wish I could do 3:20 ... maybe somewhere down the road. Lot's of guys on here that are in their early 40's are shooting for the 3:20 BQ, maybe it's one of them you are thinking of. I'm 46 and need a 3:30 to BQ. That's been the goal since day 1.

I'm sure you are right. I'm in the same boat wishing I could list 3:20 (that's my BQ) but knowing I'm not there.

mr train you are a pain, your words - they make me go insane

they strike my ever-thinking brain like little drops of acid rain

oh, to my life you are a bane; crazy, mixed up, mr train - r2e

This last one is a big fat maybe only if I decide to go for maniac status

I dont have goal times yet for anything until I see how long it is going to take to recover the lost fitness from this spring, it seems to be taking longer than usual. There is a fair chance I'll decide to pace a friend at Portland instead of going for PR if it looks like its too far gone.

*I have made peace with the reality that people will continue to ask if it is as long as the NYC Marathon. Just one more way to be sure I'm doing it just for the love of the game...

Funny, the other Portland has it's marathon on 10/4 too. I am thinking about it. But I'll probably just do Bay State again...
